BLACK GOLD
Down it goes, like a giant earth worm, closer and closer to the
earth’s core, to drink of what is left of the dinosaur bones. Thick
and glamorous, dark and existent like black gold concealed
beneath the earth, waiting to bring joy and wonders. Every sip calls
man’s greed, a source of power to make him succeed. Ever since u
has been discovered, u brought end to the brutal whale slaughter.
Now roads and machines are a product of your great nature,
powering cars and factories for endless luxury. U constructed huge
birds zipping faster than sound; the Wright Brothers would wish
they were still around. A world without u is a dark one, u glow the
earth at night bright like the sun.
But why did u betray Mother Nature? U birthed plastics and
chemicals to pollute god’s great Garden of Eden. U let us aliens
used u to destroy the homes of species and now it’s sad to
announce that u have become our greatest enemy. Every second
that goes by, the ice cap melts from the heat u manifested; the
North Pole will soon be defeated. Our greed for u have blinded us,
your true nature is prosperous. It’s true, you’re blamed for our
wrong doing, but we have no other option for such energy needed.
U left us no other choice but to abandon u, the black gold will soon
be depleted. We turn to wind and water to repent our sins, its
pureness is infinite for greater things. Now ever animal can live
freely and god’s great garden will be his truly. But we will never
forget what u have done for us, you are the greats source of power,
our black golden sun.
